Springtime is all about celebrating new life and if you are planning to share about a new baby on the way, spring pregnancy announcement ideas are plentiful this time of year! From the bright colors that emerge in nature after a long and chilly winter, to the awakening of new buds and lush grass growing outside your front door. Springtime brings about a feeling of new beginnings and offers endless opportunities to incorporate the beauty of the season into your announcement. Here are some pregnancy announcement ideas to put an extra spring in your step as you share your good news!
When To Make The Announcement
Deciding on the right time to share the news of your pregnancy is totally up to you. Some parents-to-be share the news with their closest circle of friends and family as soon as they find out, but wait to tell acquaintances until they are further along. Other times, expecting parents may decide to share the news with everyone following their first doctor's appointment or near the 12-week mark. There is no right or wrong time to share, just whenever it feels right to you!
Spring Pregnancy Announcement Ideas
Incorporating aspects of nature into your announcement can make it extra exciting! Thinking of factors such as blooming flowers, cheerful colors and the beauty of the outdoors coming to life are all great places to start. Here are some ideas to help spark your creativity:
Baby In Bloom
For this idea, you could pick up a spring wreath at your local garden store, or try your hand at making your own! When selecting the wreath, you could opt for a variety of spring flower colors, or stick with something softer such as baby’s breath. Once you decide, lay your wreath on a section of lush, green grass in your own yard or at a nearby park. Next, add in a letter board or chalkboard and write out the words "Baby In Bloom". Set the message board in the center of the wreath & add in a photo of the baby's first ultrasound along with it. Snap a photo and print it out to give to your loved ones & let them know that your little baby is in bloom!
Garden Announcement
This idea allows you to share your news as you relate it to the growing season in the world of gardening. If you have your own backyard garden, you could set this announcement up right outside your door. If not, perhaps you could visit a local farm or public garden space to utilize their space for the photo. Just be sure to ask permission first. Bring along a baby blanket as well as some baby items such as a rattle, baby shoes & newborn hat. Arrange your items on the baby blanket next to the fruits or veggies that are growing in the garden. You could even bring along your own basket of spring produce to include as an additional photo prop. Take a photo of the arrangement and use your favorite personalization app on your phone to add in the words "Our Garden Isn't The Only Thing That Is Growing This Season". Likewise, you could also say "Our Family Is Growing". Use the photo to share your announcement on social media, or simply print it out for your circle of friends and family to enjoy!
Easter Theme
If you would like to share the news around Easter, this is a festive idea! Put together a small Easter basket that includes baby items. Perhaps you could add in a small Easter Bunny figurine along with decorative Easter eggs. Use a marker board or small message board to write out the words "We're EGG-specting!" Arrange this setup outside or in a well-lit area of your home and capture a picture of it. You could frame this little photo keepsake and it could become a holiday treasure year after year as you celebrate with your little one.
Photo Session
If you would like to include your growing baby bump in the photos, this time of year is perfect for having some special photos taken. Select a spring outfit that you feel comfortable in. Oftentimes flowy dresses with floral prints or soft colors are a sweet choice for Mamas with a growing belly! Either ask a friend to come along with you and your partner to take your photos, or hire a family photographer. Head to an outdoor space such as a local park, nature area or flower farm and have some photos captured of your little family. Consider bringing along a personalized baby onesie that has the news printed on it to feature in the photos as well. Capturing this kind of photo session will help freeze this special moment in time forever!
